Baskets to keep me warm!

Outside, a snow storm is raging but I got me some baskets to keep me warm! LOL Another quilt is finished! Oh, this was a lovely quilt to work on and there are quite a few baskets that were all hand appliqued.

Eventually, some blue quilted pillows will be made to co-ordinate with this quilt and other quilts that are of the same fabrics. These will do for now.

A few years ago, these baskets were quite the rage (original design is by Blackbirds). Except, I did my own thing. I found this basket on EQ7 and did a different border layout to make it my own.

Silly thing is .... I'm not really fond of baskets, but how in the world did I end up making a basket quilt? Go figure that one out! I guess when you see something on blog after blog after blog, the brain gets a subliminal message to make one too! So, I did!! Anyway, I'm glad that I did and this quilt will be much enjoyed.

I love your basket quilt and how cute it looks on the bed. I've made about 40 of the baskets you mentioned in the post. I'm late to the party-I just started a few months ago but I've always wanted to make this quilt. I love how you set the edges and borders.
